Z/Server Dependent Production Applications
The Department has a large scale, integrated infrastructure in which the Z/Enterprise Server (formerly known as the mainframe) is a key component. The Department's computer applications have been built to optimally leverage this infrastructure, so many of them have specific dependencies to the mainframe. Accordingly, when the mainframe is inaccessible these applications will be too.
As of September 11, 2025, the following Production applications have a dependency on the z/Server:
